Isla Fisher Gossip

Sacha Baron Cohen dropped by Letterman last night to promote Bruno. Up to now, almost all of his interviews have been in character. Not for Letterman. At least not this time. Letterman was ok with Borat, but Letterman doesn’t appear to have wanted to meet Bruno so Sacha talked to Letterman as Sacha, arriving at the studios in non-Bruno clothing, looking great in a suit and hat, but getting back into costume upon departure. Full Story

The LA premiere of Bruno went ahead as planned yesterday and Sacha Baron Cohen, in character of course, also stopped by The Tonight Show for a visit with Conan O’Brien during which Conan could not stop looking at his kugelsack. Bruno hits theatres July 10th but last night on Larry King, Morley said there’s some speculation that the film may need to be recut because there’s apparently a moment when Bruno punks LaToya Jackson into calling Michael Jackson, or something. Full Story

Bruno premiered in London tonight. As you can see, Sacha Baron Cohen is once again showing off his ass. Lorella emailed me about this the other day: you know he’s a hairy dude. And somehow he has no black hair pores. How??? Wonder if he had laser. But if he had laser it would be impossible for him to get back into character if he needs to pull a Borat. Full Story

Three weeks to go before the release of Bruno which is why he’s slowly making his way across Europe and then to North America to promote the film.

Yesterday it was Paris where he did his best, naturally, to show us the inside of his body through his ass, and also brought along his real life baby mother Isla Fisher who, as you know, is super tight these days with the likes of Courteney Cox and Sheryl Crow and the Malibu Mother Mafia.

The first review of Bruno however has now been published – click here to read - and while Sacha may have moved to Hollywood, he’s still not afraid to punk on some major Hollywood players. SPOILER: there’s a part in the film when Bruno tries to de-gay himself and seeks assistance from a Bible thumper so that he can go straight “like Tom Cruise, John Travolta, and Kevin Spacey”.

Do you love it?

I mean, Sacha would know, right?

It’s Tuesday. New posts all day in between a screening of (500) Days of Summer. CanNOT wait. Will tweet about it. My Twitter is here.

Yours in gossip,

PS. It’s our last week of Venus Embrace looks. All-time best legs coming Thursday! Any suggestions? Click here to catch up if you haven’t voted on our previous looks.

PPS. Bro Massage is not Ben and Casey Affleck. Or Casey Affleck and Joaquin Phoenix. Also not Sean Penn and Josh Brolin.

Courteney Cox and Isla Fisher yesterday out for lunch at Joan’s on Third. All part of that little yummy mummy crowd – from which Courteney’s longtime bestie Jennifer Aniston is feeling increasingly isolated. At least according to Life & Style. Obviously bullsh-t. But the photos came at a great time as their latest issue hits stands featuring a BFF breakup. Full Story

Shopaholic opened in 4th place this weekend. Not a good result by any stretch. And while this is good news for those who hate chick flicks – yes! – it’s terrible news for those who love Isla Fisher. I love Isla Fisher. So I feel badly for her. This must have been why she looked so … uncomfortable and embarrassedFull Story

In New York last night at the premiere of Confessions of a Shopaholic, oh lawd. Also popped in for a quick visit with Letterman. But Isla Fisher seemed to be missing her sparkle. Ready to play our favourite game? Photo Assumption! Drawing conclusions based on nothing but photos, zero hard facts, zero source information… And to me she looks embarrassed. Full Story

Isla Fisher was spotted yesterday in Westwood with little Olive Cohen. Actually little Olive Cohen doesn’t look so little. Little Olive is an adorable chunks! Fat babies are the best. Isla and Sacha Baron Cohen are always super low profile. But everyone’s got a job to do. About 6 months to go before Isla’s Confessions of a Shopaholic is released. Full Story

Isla Fisher shooting in NYC yesterday on the set of Confessions of a Shopaholic – like The Devil Wears Prada, no doubt the movie will be far superior to the book, especially with Isla in the lead. Love Isla. Loved Isla in Definitely, Maybe. Have you seen yet? They always talk about that “It”. Full Story

It’s been four months since the arrival of baby Olive. Here’s Isla Fisher in New York last night for the premiere of Definitely, Maybe which according to advance preview audiences is adorable. Word is Isla has slimmed down quickly for her wedding. She was cute in an interview recently, when asked if she’ll invite her Wedding Crashers co-stars, she said she would not on purpose just to see if they’d end up crashing it anyway. Full Story

It’s not unusual to learn about Shelf Ass Jessica Biel workin’ the paps in her favour. Or Paris Hilton. Or even Jennifer Garner. But what about Sacha Baron Cohen? He is supposed to be press shy, supposed to be in it for the art and not for the fame, supposed to be above strategic wrangling media manipulation his peers frequently engage in. Full Story

Isla Fisher and Naomi Watts both pregnant, hanging together yesterday in California and giggling together too - adorable, non? And a great story about Sacha Baron Cohen the other day. A house party in LA, door opens, in walks Sacha. He grabs a beer, does a lap around the place, didn’t see anyone knew, and then walked right back out… He did come back later though, to apologise and to explain – he had been invited to another party and went into the wrong house.
